I hate PowerPoint presentations, don’t you?

This is how not to suck the life out of your colleagues with PowerPoint, which is ironically presented in the form of a slide show.

Or you could write on a board or projector. I attended a few computer science lectures where they used power point presentations. I really didn’t learn anything.

I always appreciated white or black boards, or projections where the presenter would write, draw or type. That’s a lot more effective. People should just abandon pre-made slides altogether.

I love powerpoint, but hate PPT 2007 with a passion. This is like having General Motors moving all your car controls and placing the steering wheel in the backseat and backwards just for fun….

Powerpoint 2007 has busy graphs, wasted space and hard to get to any controls. Tons of busy crap that makes it hard to work. I surrender after 15 years with MS, I simply give up: time to buy an Apple
